Matthew 14:19 And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.
This week our theme is “Consuming”
In the story of the feeding of the five thousand we read that Jesus broke the loaves He broke the loaves into pieces, the disciples gave them to the people. They all ate and were satisfied. Matthew 14: 19-20
In Gods economy there is food for all and none should go hungry. Sadly this is not the case in our world, where the worlds 200 people have as much as the poorest 40% and where 850 million people go to bed hungry every night.
This week as we reflect on what we buy and how we use our money, let us remember the countless millions who will not have enough to eat this night.
